For me the best beach in Mauritius. A very beautiful beach. I would come back here next time. Snorkelling is very good and can be done by the beach. I saw a wide variety of fish and the corals are alive. The snorkeling area is on the right after the public beach.

The cinq mondes spa at Sugar Beach hotel is a treat and worth a visit . The therapists especially Amisha and Joyce are not only very professional and skilled but also pleasant and caring

A beautiful white sand beach which goes on for miles! A lot of coral on the sea shore so maybe useful to wear swim shoes when going into the water. Specific swim safe areas, the water is very shallow with small waves. Plenty of takeaway shacks for food and drinks during the day. This is a public beach and the police station is also situated close by.

While we stayed in Flic en Flac we went there often for 1 or 2 hours in the afternoon/evening.
Wasn't crowded. Beautiful sunset.
Clear water. You can see lots of fish through the surface when you enter the water knee-deep.
Great for snorkeling as well.
Bring water shoes because of the stones and corals. Haven't seen any urchins there.
You can have lots of different snacks from the food trucks there.

It's very long beach so you can walk down until you find a spot that suits you, has a lovely sunset. Popular with locals without being overcrowded, plenty of bars and restaurants lining the road behind the beach. There is shade under trees behind the beach. It seemed clean to me and plenty of areas you can go in the sea. I thought it was a very nice beach.

Bonjour,
Nous sommes partis le 9 septembre à Flic en Flac et nous sommes restés 10 jours. L'eau était très agréable certainement autour de 26°. La météo était alléatoire avec des passages nuageux, quelques gouttes de pluie et certains jours grand soleil. C'était très agréable si on n'aime pas les grosses chaleurs tropicales.
Nous nous sommes régalés car peu de monde, nous étions seuls dans l'eau.

Siamo una famiglia con bambini di 2 e 5 anni, quale zona consigliate? Flic en flac o dintorni di Grand Baie? Vorremmo stare in un resort con una bella spiaggia ma esser comodi anche per fare escursioni(credo noleggeremo un auto). Grazie

Flic en Flac è molto più tranquilla rispetto a Grand Baie, sopratutto la sera.
Se vorresti visitare e fare escursioni ti noleggi l'auto.
Cè un piccolo centro commerciale di nome Pasadena.
Li vicino c'è la stazione della polizia, trovi anche dove cambiare moneta(Lun/Ven), poi il bancomat, supermercato Despar super affollato.
Escursioni a 15 minuti di auto dovresti andare al Casela World of Adventures i prezzi variano in base all'attrazione. Il biglietto d' ingresso al Casela Nature Park per un pacchetto base che include un prezzo Casela Safari è di circa 22 Euro a persona per gli adulti e 15 Euro per i bambini.
Poi ti consiglio le suggestive Terre de Chamarel prezzo circa 6 euro.
Li vicino trovi il Black River Gorges National Park uno di questi punti c'è una cascata alta 83 metri.
Super consigliato a ciraca 45 minuti da Flic En Flac ,il Ganga Talao il posto più sacro dell'intera isola.
Nella strada principale già a 10 km di distanza vedi la statua di 33 metri del dio Shiva e a destra sua moglie Parvati.
Il prezzo del biglietto non lo ricordo, però occhio alle scimmiette, ladre.
Posto magico senza dubbio.
Al ritorno però un tuffo a Le Morne Brabant lo dovete fare, trovi parcheggio ed entri dalla spiaggia pubblica, la montagna Le Morne ti toglie il fiato.
Buon Viaggio....

Don't worry about the rain. It has rained here every day for the last 6 days. A few drops and five minutes of you're time and it's over

I visited in Oct.2018 ,as it was the best season to visit Mauritius ,from Dec.onward the rains start.and weather remains uncertain, So it is not easy to say you should cancel the trip,weather may or may not be pleasant during your trip, if one or two days out of 14 days visit goes waste due to bad weather or rains even than it would not be a bad trip.but your itinerary of spoiled days would definitely be affected.rest is your luck.

Are there any local restaurants or bars near to La Pirogue hotel ??

Yes, there are a few close to the resort side, however further down into the main part of Flic en Flac there are many.
Can walk down or grab a bus- PS- you can flag buses down even outside the bus stops.just like you do the taxis.
The Chinese- you will know which one is the second best Chinese on the island (per locals). The street vendors on the edge of the beach are usually of good quality and nice prices- things are cooked fresh to order so can take a while.
Don’t have Italian unless dining in the resorts/ hotels. Even locals go to the hotels if they want Italian.

Hi im staying in flic en flac in november for two weeks. We are eating at local resturants daily. NOT HOTELS. Please could you advise me on what currency too take or use

It's better to have cash with you. Exchange your currency. Use Mauritian Rupees. You can exchange at the airport.

Hi all, I’m exploring Flic En Flac as a destination at the moment for anniversary and 40th bday trip. We’re not foody people and just want a good beach to relax for a week. Debating hotel with HB or Air BnB. If we Air BnB, what are food options in the area and do you advise we rent a car? Thanks in advance :-)

There are plenty of restaurants and cafes in flicenflac. Taxis are expensive when they see tourist be careful.If you are confident hire a car as it willl be easy to explore and there are some lovely beaches where you can swim and places of interest to visit.Enjoy your holiday
Salve, dovrei partire ad agosto per Mauritius e vorrei una struttura pulita, in cui la spiaggia è la cosa principale, insieme al mare. Una vacanza prettamente basata su quello. Il periodo è sbagliato per questa zona?
